This picture shows a student studying in one of the public lounges in a residence hall.
This Picture shows a portion of the lounge that has tables and a soda machine.
Students often use the lounge for a variety of activities. For example movies, studying, and hanging out with friends.The lounges are used by a variety of people. Friends of both genders often use the space to hang out outside of their usual dorm room. While I was in the lounge I observed a few things:Studying- 3 peopleTV Watching- 1 personSocializing- 4 people
Both genders were included in this data. I observed that females tended to socialize more than the males while in the lounge. However, once people came in to hang out everyone was swept up by the conversation.
The lounges are made for all of the activities I have mentioned above. It includes seven comfy chairs, two tables with chairs, and a soda machine. The colors of the room all go together but it is not very homey feeling inside. The walls are mostly white which makes it feel empty and there is not anything to personalize it. It has the bare essentials.
